Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information

    Evangelion

    What does the name of the 9th Angel, Matarael mean?"Evangelion" Madness

      Angel of Rain. It is indeed the Angel of Rain. The Angel of Fear is Ireul (11th Angel), the Angel of Hail is Bardiel (13th Angel), and the Angel of Might is Zeruel (14th Angel).

    What is the meaning of "Central Dogma"? (It is the transfer of genetic information in the order of _____ to _____ to _____)."Evangelion" Madness

      DNA to RNA to Protein. So, where Rei floats in her tank filled with "LCL" (Inside "Central Dogma") from time to time, is also where her clones are situated. This place symbolises the transfer of genetic information in the order of DNA to RNA to Protein.

    Why was "Gehirn" disbanded and "NERV" created in 2010?"Evangelion" Madness

      The "MAGI Super Computer System" had been completed. Dr Naoko Akagi had finally finished the "MAGI", and therefore, a new organisation was formed ("NERV"). Most of the people who worked at "Gehirn" transferred over to "NERV", where they continued working on the "E-Project".

    What can the "Sea of LCL" be described as?"Evangelion" Madness

      "The Primordial Soup of Life". Rei states this to Shinji. He admits that he wants to see the other people again, and Lilith's head falls off. "Third Impact" ceased.

    What songs do Shinji and Asuka respectively play to tune their instruments before String Quartet Rehearsal in "Death"?"Evangelion" Madness

      "Vorspier" and "Gavotte in Rondo". The names of these songs are flashed on the screen and stay there for about 2 seconds. Both composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, "Vorspier" (Played by Shinji) and "Gavotte in Rondo" (Played by Asuka). The others are also by Bach, but I only threw them in because I needed 2 more combinations.

    What is the official name of Pen-Pen?"Evangelion" Madness

      The 2nd Power of Pen. The proper English for the correct answer (The 2nd Power of Pen) is most likely to be Pen to the Power of 2. Either way, this is what the official name of Pen-Pen actually is!

    Who showed us that they truly don't love anybody else?"Evangelion" Madness

      Shigeru Aoba. This one was a givaway! It's obvious that the answer is Aoba. When people start losing their physical forms during "Third Impact", Ritsuko hugs Maya, showing us that Maya had deep feelings for Ritsuko. We see Misato kiss Makoto, showing us that Makoto loved Misato. And of course how can we forget Kaworu? I think it's obvious that he loves Shinji...he stated it. Another giveaway is the fact that when Aoba was turning into "LCL", he had no vision of a lover, only a mass of Rei's. And I do not believe he loves Rei, as he was shrieking with terror.

    The design of "Evangelion Unit 00" through to "Evangelion Unit 03" perfectly resemble what?"Evangelion" Madness

      The Barons of Hell. The Angels are the Messengers from God, and none of the Evangelions really resemble the Angels in appearance. The Harbingers of Death and The Harbingers of Tragedy are what the Angels and possibly the Evangelions can be described as, but not what they look like. The Barons of Hell on the other hand, is an interesting story. There were 4 Barons of Hell, the first was said to have a featureless face except for 1 large eye (Unit 00). The next was described as the Baron of Darkness and had 1 large horn on its head, and a mass of huge gnawing teeth (Unit 01). The third was described as being "Blood Red in Colour" and having a face with 4 eyes and 2 mouths (Unit 02). The last was said to be pitch black, and had arms that could stretch an unnaturally long distance (Unit 03).

    What is the scripting that accompanies the "NERV" logo?"Evangelion" Madness

      "God's in his heaven. All's right with the world.". You have probably seen this before. I think this quote is great. So I knew what it said, I paused the video when I saw the logo come up for the first time. Damn it was hard thinking of the incorrect answers for this question!

    Episode 12 is She said: "Don't make others suffer for your personal hatred." Who would say this, and who would she say this to?"Evangelion" Madness

      Ritsuko Akagi and Misato Katsuragi. Misato hates the Angels. Ritsuko does not want her to make others suffer for her own personal hatred, as she knows Misato's personal hatred against them.

    Which "SEELE" member was the second last to turn into LCL?"Evangelion" Madness

      SEELE 06. When "Third Impact" occurred, SEELE 06 was the second last "SEELE" member to turn into LCL, with Keel Lorentz (SEELE 01) being the last.

    Who gives proof that Shinji and Asuka are not to repopulate the world (in order)?"Evangelion" Madness

      Rei and Yui. Rei proves this first. She stated that "Anyone can return to human form...as long as they are able to imagine themselves within their own heart." Yui backs up this claim by saying "All living creatures have the power to be brought back to life...and the will to go on living." (These statements were made at the very end of "The End of Evangelion"). Therefore, Shinji and Asuka do not have to repopulate the planet, as Rei and Yui prove this.

    How was Rei created? (She was cloned from the cells of _____ and infused with the DNA of _____)."Evangelion" Madness

      Yui and Lilith . It's true. Rei was created from the cells of Yui, that is why her physical appearance resembles Yui. Her DNA structure is that of the 2nd Angel, Lilith. This is why in "The End of Evangelion", she is welcomed home by Lilith prior to "Third Impact".

    During "Death", What song is it that Shinji, Rei, Asuka and Kaworu are meeting to play during String Quartet Rehearsal at their school?"Evangelion" Madness

      "Pachelbel's Canon". Composed by Johann Pachelbel, "Pachelbel's Canon" is truly magnificent, played during the credits of "Death". Kaworu states to Shinji that "Ode to Joy" is the greatest accomplishment of the "Lilin" culture. If this is so, "Pachelbel's Canon" is a definite second place! "The Refrain of the Soul" is from the "Evangelion" CD, "Refrain". "4th Movement: Presto" (Symphony #9 In D-Minor) comes from another "Evangelion" CD, "Addition".

    Whose soul/mind could one say is inside "Evangelion Unit 00"? (This one requires you to have a calculating mind.)"Evangelion" Madness

      Naoko Akagi . On the first occasion when "Evangelion Unit 00" went beserk, it was trying to attack Gendo, Rei or Ritsuko (Even all three). It was definitely after Ritsuko the second time around. It makes sense that Naoko's mind was transplanted into the "Prototype", after all, the "Evangelion" does hate Rei; and remember that Naoko strangled Rei I to death. She has been forced to become a part of something that she poured her blood and sweat into creating, and therefore, lashes out out at Gendo and Ritsuko, as now she is merely a puppet for Gendo and Ritsuko's bidding. I do not believe that the correct answer to this question is Lilith, because if it were true, Rei's synchronisational level with "Evangelion Unit 00" would be much better than what it is, as Rei has the DNA of Lilith, which means they would synchronise at a very high level.

    When Shinji first begins at NERV, what is his designation?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      The Third Child. Shinji is the Third Child, as he was the third suitable person chosen to pilot an Evangelion. The First Child was Rei Ayanami, and the Second Child was Asuka Langley Soryu.

    What are the names of the three MAGI Computers at NERV Headquarters?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      Balthasar, Melchior, Caspar. Balthasar, Melchior, and Caspar, the three MAGI, were created by Ritsuko's mother Naoko Akagi, and represent herself as a woman, herself as a scientist, and herself as a mother.

    What is Leliel, the twelfth angel composed of?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      A Sea of Dirac. The twelfth angel was made up of a Sea of Dirac, which swallowed up Shinji and Eva Unit 01.

    What NERV official did Ryoji Kaji kidnap?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      Fuyutsuki. Kagi kidnapped Fuyutsuki so he could meet with the rest of SEELE without Gendo Ikari present.

    What is Kaji's hobby?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      Growing Melons. In two episodes we see Kaji watering melons, and he explains to Shinji that he does it as a hobby.

    Which angel decapitates Eva Unit 02?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      Zeruel. Zeruel is the fourteenth angel, and is also the angel Unit 01 eats alive. Earlier in that same episode, we see Zeruel tear off Unit 02's arms and head, and tear a hole in the chest and head of Unit 00.

    When looking at the situation from a broader view, who does Misato say is the final angel?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      Humans. This one is from 'End of Evangelion'. While in Misato's Renault Alpine, she tells a cowering Shinji that humans are the final angel.

    When Asuka wakes up inside Unit 02, who does she do battle with?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      The JSSDF. Asuka wakes up from her coma in Unit 02 at the bottom of the lake, and destroys the entire Japan Strategic Self Defense Force (JSSDF) in her Eva.

    How much time does Asuka have to defeat the Eva series before Eva's power supply is depleted?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      three and a half minutes. When Asuka's power cable is severed she has five minutes, HOWEVER, she battles the remaining JSSDF forces, THEN has three and a half minutes to battle the Eva Series.

    What does Shigeru Aoba hallucinate right before he turns to LCL?Kitsune's 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' Quiz

      A bunch of Rei's. All Aoba sees before he turns to LCL is a group of Rei's. Hyuuga is kissed by Misato, Maya is kissed by Ritsuko, and Fuyutsuki is kissed by Yui before the three of them in turn change to LCL.

    Instead of shields, the attacking Angels use powerful "Absolute Terror" fields, or "AT" fields for short. Who was the original inventor of this concept?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      Sigmud Freud. Sigmud Freud is a famous 19th century psychologist. William Reich was his student, who later developed the idea of the AT field. The field itself is the theory that a child who grew up without strong parental figures would create a mental barrier, or the Absolute Terror field, to keep others at an emotional distance.

    What number is used most often in the series as a symbol of divinity or of divine aspiritions?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      Seven. Throughout both the Old and New Testaments of the Christian Bible, the number seven is used to represent divinity, especially showing up when God manifests His will. One example is Revelation 5:6.

    Kaworu goes so far as to call humans "Lilim" is episode 24. According to apocryphal texts of Judaism and Christianity, Lilith was the first wife of whom?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      Adam. Lilith is said to have been banished from the Garden of Eden when she refused to be subserviant to Adam, because she, unlike Eve, was not created from Adam.

    Also found in the NERV logo is a fig leaf. What does this represent?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      Humanity's fall from grace. The leaf comes from Judeo-Christian beliefs that Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge, giving them knowledge of right and wrong. In shame, they covered themselves with fig leaves.

    The Lance/Spear of Longinus and it's location embedded in the side of Lilith, is a reference to what Christian historical figure?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      Jesus Christ. In the New Testament (John 19:31-37), the Bible mentions a solider piercing the side of Jesus to ensure his death.

    The symbol seen in the opening credits and painted on Gendo Ikari's office ceiling is known as the Tree of Life. According to the anciet Judaic philosophy known as Kabbalism, this symbol is a path to what?"Evangelion" Symbolism

      God. The symbol consists of 10.5 spheres called sephiroths and 32 paths connecting them. The more you move through the sephiroths the closer you get to God. Gendo sits under the sephiroth Kether, the highest sephiroth known as the Crown of God. It also appeares when Shinji and the 9 Mass-Production EVAs form a giant Tree of Life in the sky. Shinji sits on the sephiroth Tiphereth in the center of the tree, where God begins to manifest and the ritual of crucifiction begins.
